nderjit Thind has spent his career working at the intersection of business and data, helping organisations understand what their data actually means before they attempt to build anything with it. As an Enterprise Data Modeller and Data Architecture practitioner, he has worked across insurance, financial services, and the public sector, navigating the stakeholder relationships, governance challenges, and organisational complexities that technical training rarely prepares you for.

He holds a Master of Research (MRes) in Computer Science and is TOGAF Certified, bringing both academic rigour and hands-on architectural experience to his practice.

This handbook is the first in a series drawn from real project experience. It is written for data professionals who believe, as Inderjit does, that understanding the business always comes before designing the solution.
